Playmates Star Trek

All the stuff I found was in the collector aisle.

I saw Data today at the local Meijer. They are kinda neat. Not for me, but I hope they find their footing.

I loved the original line, so many characters and so TOYLIKE, plus some great ships and playsets ect. I seem to have read that these are slightly bigger than the previous line, but BBTS also said the new Super Powers were 5 inch and they are not or at least not enough to look out of place alongside the old ones. Anyone who has them in hand know if they are sized like the old ones?

[Mego-Amigo]

They are a bit taller than the original ones. There are several reviews on YouTube that show comparisons. The thing I'm liking about them is that they actually feel like toys. I enjoy several of the super articulated highly detailed collector lines but it's nice to have action figure lines again that just feel like toys we would have bought back in the day. These along with MOTU Origins and the new Super Powers give me that feeling. I hope they go really deep with TOS on these.

I agree 100%. I hope this line lasts as well, but it is a worry that the first wave has all heavy hitters and no aliens or guest stars. I hope that it doesn't peter out after two waves.

I bought the Enterprise today at Target($39.99). Very nice toy replica with a nice heft. The light up and sound effects are fine but nothing amazing for a playmates toy.

Saw Spock,Khan, the Enterprise and the Type 2 Phaser at Walmart today. Each figure has a designated peg but there were no Kirks.

I saw the entire line of figures at a Target today. Overall, the sculpts' and likeness to the actors are not so good (IMO). This is disappointing. Looking forward to the Enterprise toy.

Are the heads ball jointed? Would they be easily removeable?

[powersthatbe]

I got the phaser the other day, it's sized for kids so not a full scale replica but it's nice.

[Barnabas Collins]

Looks like a wave 2 was rumored/teased at London toy fair, including Worf, Geordi, Pike and Spock from Strange New Worlds, Q, and Seven of Nine.

If they're not doing Sybok, I ain't interested.

Any word on when more figures will be released?

[Liu Bei]

I posted about it somewhere else on the forum awhile back, but if I remember right, the second wave will include Worf, Geordi, Q in Judge’s robes, Voyager 7 of 9 in silver uniform, and fake Pike & fake Spock from SNW.

The pictures leaked from some toy fair in Europe awhile back, but no official word from Playmates, and no hint yet about what ships or role-playing items to expect.
